A lot of good cameos for smoke, been using darrius for easy combo extension off any normals(except 1,1,1,4) or specials including throws leading to full combos and low overhead pressure mix ups with darrius's overhead, considering his kick is like +78 on block you get free mix up pressure off anything
Sektor go brr. Shoot missile on knockdown and force them to eat a mixup( breaks armor). Easy combo extension for 11 (his fastest punish), and restand option with flame fist. The missile can also keep his teleport/ overhead smoke bomb safe which is very annoying to deal with.
Great sets there. I'm gonna call Square Wave by Square Weave from now on. lol I'm using Havik with Sareena, Reptile with Scorpion, and I'm think of picking up Scorpion as well. Don't know with what Kameo yet. Havik is weird and fun, all about set-ups and using his safe meterless armoured launcher in the neutral for pressure. Smoke looks fun. I'll have to try him out.
Smoke is my main and Jax is the best Kameo for Smoke. Smoke needs someone that enhances and compliments his strings which Jax does. While other Kameos come in and perform some damage, Jax lets Smoke do 400% damage in multiple combos.
F3, 2 - Sareena Cameo - 3, 2 - F1, 2, 1+3 - EX Port - 1, 1, 3 Pretty easy and good damage for 1 bar till you get conformable confirming into the DB3 cancel
Jax.... Jax is Smokes best cameo. Allows Combos off moves no one else can, Sonya can do some of them but jax allows an insane amount of comboability and setups with the unblockable.
@@FlashyyGaming Jax can make him combo off his teleport no meter into smokebomb to end combos, his back 2,3,4, his forward 1,2,2,4 and some other things he normally couldn't continue a combo from.
Kameos make a big difference for him so find one that suits you. Also don't go crazy with his moves that are minus like teleport, try to only use them when it's guaranteed a hit
@@FlashyyGaming I was kicking smokes butt the first few days cause everyone was teleporting and it was easy to punish. Now everyone’s mixing me up like they’re supposed to and it’s 50/50 on wether a win against him. Thanks for the advice, I’ll check some of them out.
Dude I started the first 2 days with Raiden but he's so braindead and OP that I needed another char that fits my play style and that's smoke but it's so hard to get in with him... seems like every character in this game has more range than smoke and if it comes to that typical "I poke you poke what you gonna do now?" Moment you're having a hard time though
How come in the first mirror match one Smoke has 1000 hp and the other has 1050? How does that work? I also saw a video earlier where Havik had 1200 hp?!
Thing I can’t decide on is lao and cyrax u can condition people w cancels n stuff but cyrax tornado can make it fully safe and doing his regular vapor no cancel to catch someone mashing has no way of being safe w lao
@@Haptixz It's really just a matter of learning block strings, i.e what's punishable/safe. Also using up-block is a good habit to stop all the jumping attacks

Darrius lowkey an insane kameo
Yeah Darrius is good with smoke I do the over head 3 combo with the normal Darrius Kameo into the 2 hit throw combo

Can confirm Sektor does in fact go brr
i like how bro keep sayin 'combat league' mid game😂
you gotta use his cancels my boy. Thats his best tool.
He is Up Blocking your jump in attacks but they also work on Overheads.
Love this Flashyyy im glad you are fully back im loving the game im running Reptile and subzero
Nice! Reptile is actually sick in this game lol
Great sets there. I'm gonna call Square Wave by Square Weave from now on. lol

Definitely looking forward to checking out what Havik can do
Scorp was good with cyrax but idk now after that nerf
I always go with sareena cuz I like that F projectile and Good combo dmg with Her B projectile
Stryker best cameo for him. 50/50 Vortex city
So glad to see Flashy back!
🙌
I always keep the pressure up with smoke and his dash cancels the db4 cancel is bait 2 still going hard with my main smoke 134-4 😁
Love that
that to amazing
Learn his cancels it’s a game changer 😊
Yeah Smoke cancel combos are insane lol

I love Kung Lao with Smoke
Same 🙌
Im waiting for the 19th like its chirstmas! Smoke gonna be your new main?
Definitely my week 1 main! Don’t see that changing anytime soon either
What do you think about frost smoke
I use that combo from time to time! She adds another layer of mix to Smoke that I like
Frost Kameo. Frost slide and the b2, 1 mix up??? Hehe. Also f1,2 dash cancel throw is money
Frost S tier for sure
Honestly I love Goro with Smoke
Goro is a W lol
Hey Flashy do you mind maybe doing a short explaining the smoke vapor cancel to extend combos. Im having a tough time being consistent with it
Or do you think its better to just use a kameo as a combo extender?
F3, 2 - Sareena Cameo - 3, 2 - F1, 2, 1+3 - EX Port - 1, 1, 3

@@thomas4489use the meter less cancel you have to click Back R2 when Back Forward 2 is about to hit. It’s free

I’m going to have to get into practice mode with Jax and smoke for sure

@@NerdLegionIncgoro too can extend all of this strings into combos, albo can give you meterless db4 combo and is overall better
Is Smoke any good for competitive play?
To be honest I feel like pretty much all characters are viable in competitive right now as long as you find the right Kameo to match with them
Any advice on how to get better with smoke? He’s really execution heavy, and I’ve been getting shredded online.

Try scorpion

If I’m not mistaken the kameo you pick has an effect on how much health you have
different kameos give u extra health or take away health
Square weave 💀💀
Stress makes me add letters to words apparently
@@FlashyyGaming it's perfectly fine. Those were some insane sets. Your content has been really great since the launch, keep it up dude 🔥🔥🔥
Kung Lao seemed the strongest for him
Thing I can’t decide on is lao and cyrax u can condition people w cancels n stuff but cyrax tornado can make it fully safe and doing his regular vapor no cancel to catch someone mashing has no way of being safe w lao
Been my favorite kameo so far for sure
Scorpion is best for him
Scorpion kameo just too good
I genuinely can’t win someone please for the love of god help me
Find high damage combos with your character that you can cash out with, and find a kameo that youre comfortable with
@@FlashyyGaming how do I deal with all the pressure
